Make no bones about it, the Orioles are NOT a bad team. They were ONCE a bad team earlier in the season, but now that their pitching is healthy, they’re better than the Twins, and they will be a tough test for the Yankees over these last 10 games, with the Yankees having to play them SEVEN of their last ten games.
Oh, and of course, the Yankees had to pay the Yankees tax last night, playing a night game in Minnesota before flying to Maryland late at night.
